*Description: *
Satellites still provide a communications lifeline for a large
proportion of Africa’s internal and external traffic. And wireless
broadband technologies are increasingly providing the continent’s
intermediate and last mile links. SatWiBB Africa is the first conference
to cover both ends of this increasingly integrated and converging
communications paradigm.
Satellite and wireless communications and VoIP are not just IT topics –
they go to the heart of every organisation’s culture, processes and
productivity.
This convergence event brings together the latest in wireless network
and mobile device applications that can help enterprises reduce costs
and improve business practices.
And a three-day specialised exhibition that is part of the event will
showcase the latest and demonstrate the best ways to cost, plan and
deploy technologies such as Wi-Fi, WiMAX, 3G, and VoIP.
